* Rescue and rehabilitate animals: Some animal activists work with organizations that rescue and rehabilitate animals that have been injured or orphaned due to poaching. These organizations provide veterinary care, shelter, and rehabilitation before returning the animals to the wild, if possible.
* Expose and combat the illegal trade: Animal activists work to expose the networks and individuals involved in poaching and illegal wildlife trade. They pressure governments and international organizations to take action against this criminal activity.
